Roll of Honour

One hundred pages of the Commemorative Booklet comprise the Roll of Honour, provided by the Police Roll of Honour Trust, in which the names and details of nearly 4,000 officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty are published for the first time.

 

Entries include a citation for each officer showing rank, full name, date of death, age, brief circumstances of death and any national honour or award.

 

In his foreword to the 2004 Roll the Trust’s Patron, HM Chief Inspector of Constabulary Sir Keith Povey said, “Behind every name lies a story of courage and devotion to duty, not to mention a deep sense of loss; for the service, the country and, above all, for friends, relatives and partners. As Patron of the Trust I am deeply honoured to be associated with this dignified tribute to those who have given their lives in the line of duty.”

 

Sir Keith left us with the following quote from “Hallowed Ground” by Thomas Campbell, Scottish Poet (1777-1844).

 

“TO LIVE IN HEARTS WE LEAVE BEHIND IS NOT TO DIE”
